K4 Spring Program 2013

Last week Sara Madalin and her class participated in their end-of-the-year program. It was so sweet. When they were introduced, they were presented as the graduating class of 2026. I think every mom in the room groaned at the mention of that date even being a reality. Here are some of the sweet babies from the Bug class.

They sang several songs, and many of them had motions or some sort of activity to go with them. Sara Madalin loves performing and I loved watching her. She did really good and we were proud of her. 

They turned around at one point to put on a pair of sunglasses. 

They were all smiles when they turned around. They really enjoyed singing this song. 

When I posted this next picture on Facebook I wrote that she's got the BIG finish down pat. 

The girls sang a petunia song. Sara Madalin started making faces during this song. She thought it was funny. Her momma did not. 

The last song they sang was the school fight song. They looked so cute in their pink and blue hats. 

Here is a shot of all the 1/2 day K4 students. I can't believe that in just a few days my baby will officially be a kindergartener. 

Sara Madalin and her classmates did such a great job. We were all so proud of them. Their teachers even rewarded them with a little party this week where they got to were Silly Socks and Silly Hats. I'll post pics of SM in her hat soon. 

She's a cutie

She's pretty cute, isn't she?

Yeah, that cutie is a hand full. She's smart, funny, and a ball of energy. She gets up as soon as there is a sliver of sunlight peeping through the blackout curtains that hang in her room. She doesn't leave one thing untouched when she enters a room. She asks a million questions a day - the most frequent of which is "Why?". She loves any and every animal that she comes across, and there's never been a puddle of water that she wasn't uncontrollably attracted to. I love her. She wears me slap out, but I love her more than I ever knew I could love anyone or anything. 

Now, if she would stop mooning people in the bathroom at school, she'd probably be even cuter. 

Dance Recital 2013

Sunday evening Sara Madalin performed in her end-of-the-year dance recital. Her class had two numbers. The theme was TV hits. Her group danced to the theme songs to Little Einsteins and Imagination Movers. It was a cute fun show.

When we arrived, all the girls from her school were in a big dressing room together. One of the first people we saw was Daphney. SM wanted to go to her immediately. So I let her walk over for a hug, then took her to her area to get changed. After she was changed into her first costume, we walked back over to Daphney for another photo. They were so cute. 

Then, we walked around the room and took a few pictures with some of her friends. Some photos I took with my camera, some with my phone. I have only taken time to upload the pics from my camera to Photobucket so far. 

Here is SM with one of her best friends, Audrey. 

Here are the K4 girls performing their first dance of the evening. 

Here they are in the second performance. They danced to Imagination Movers and it was SM's favorite song of the two they danced to. 

After her second performance, we decided to leave because it was time for dinner and bed for her. We stopped in the lobby to get her flowers from Sue-Sue and Mandy. SM remembered getting flowers last year. She even remembered that I took her picture in the backyard with them. 

Sara Madalin's Nana and Popa drove down to see her perform. SM was so excited to see them. They went to dinner with us and visited a while before heading home. 

We are very proud of SM for her performance. She did a great job. I really wish she'd take dance for at least one more year. But she's informed me that she's done. She wants to play basketball and take gymnastics next year. I'm a little sad about that. But I also want her to do what she enjoys.
